I wasn't originally going to go through and write anything up for week 8 since I don't normally bother much with hair or makeup, but I figured it's always fun to see how things change so here it is.
Hair
I like my hair red. Period. I like having long hair because I can do fun things with it. The thing is I never do anything with it outside of special occasions. I could chop it off, but I feel that would be a waste of the whole hennaing/head smelling amazing experience. Instead, I spend a lot of time with my hair in messy buns, sock buns, ponytails, and the occasional gibson roll. In the summer I do braid my hair once in awhile (so I can wear a hat) but it's always the standard braid, nothing fancy. I cut my own hair so the layers and shaping in the front varies, but there's always bangs, straight cut and usually a little on the long side.
Makeup
In theory I like makeup. I like flawless skin more than the rest of it, but I don't mind playing around with the rest of the while. Most of the time I can hardly be bothered with more than concealer and foundation. Part of this is because it's a rushed five minutes before I run out the door for work, but it's also partly because I'm not satisfied with the coverage and range of products that I have. I can't use most drugstore brands and I'm not willing to shell out a lot of money for something I'm not huge on.
In an ideal world I would love to wear mascara either with or without eyeliner and then either lip gloss, a berry lip, or a slightly orange or nude lip. Even skin tone is my biggest thing. I'm not particularly picky when it comes to matte finishes or anything else for that matter.
I mostly stick with browns for the eyes, although sometimes I'm in a grey mood, lighter blush more on the orangey side, and a pretty tame lip, most of the time I go with lip gloss.
Perfume
I don't wear perfume because it bothers both my skin and my sinuses. I mainly avoid scents completely outside of the balsam sachets tucked in with my clothes when I travel. I've thought about making my own perfume, but it's more the idea and the connotations people have with it that interest me, rather than the scents or the perfume itself.
Miscellaneous
Lately I've been looking to find a nail polish brand that lasts decently but doesn't make my head ache from the chemicals. I've picked up a bottle to try and I'm on the hunt for a couple of other brands. Mainly my interest in nail polish comes from the fact that I would like something to jazz up my outfits. I don't have pierced ears and I can't wear most girly shoes let alone heels, so nail polish seemed like a nice way to dress up an outfit.
